itd-85 names the repo-conformance check abcd audit; itd-124 says the conformance check is abcd lint and audit is reserved for something else
A naming conflict (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.
- End A:
.abcd/development/intents/drafts/itd-85-audit-verb.md:16— "a read-only check that tells you, in one command, whether a repository follows the working conventions" - End B:
.abcd/development/intents/shipped/itd-124-the-conformance-check-calls-itself-lint.md:18— "The conformance check calls itself what it is.abcd lintchecks a repo"
The draft itd-85 promises a verb abcd audit whose job is checking a repository against the working conventions. The shipped itd-124 says exactly that job is abcd lint, and that the word audit returns to meaning 'did we do what we said', with /abcd:audit reserved for hash-chain fidelity checks. One name is given to two different concepts: building itd-85 as written would put the conformance check back under the name itd-124 took it away from.

- dcn-26102711123305362026-10-27 — The product thinker accepted on 2026-10-27 the triage of the 1301 records the 2026-10-26 consistency pass filed. The duplicates, the records a later record already settles, the ones that are no contradiction and the one already fixed are closed with each reader's reason. Every other record gets its fix as its remedy, the rulings' accepted answers included, so a drain can take it. The 45 major records left open are deferred past v0.15.1, because the brief's single-home rewrite rewrites or removes most of the passages they quote. The person ruled the major rulings one at a time; the minor rulings take their recommended answers.
- iss-2610262034151413itd-85 names `abcd audit` as the repository-conformance check; the intent chapter says the conformance check is `abcd lint` and reserves `/abcd:audit` for hash-chain checks.
